NSW police stated they've exposed an global satanic child sex abuse material ring and arrested four Australian men for their alleged participation.
Investigation Details
Investigators from the special victims unit indicated that as part of Strike Force Constantine, an inquiry into the online circulation of child sexual abuse material involving satanic themes, they dismantled a Sydney-located organization.
Law enforcement claimed the network was actively engaged in holding, sharing and facilitating this content through a online platform that was "managed globally".
Law Enforcement Operations
Officers, accompanied by the riot squad, carried out six search warrants in Waterloo, Ultimo and Malabar region on Thursday early hours last week.
- In the Waterloo location, authorities detained a 26-year-old man who they claimed played a "leading role" in the network.
- He was charged with multiple offences including possession of child abuse material, making available child abuse material, and disseminating and possessing bestiality material.
- Bail was denied to face court proceedings last Friday.
Further Arrests
In an apartment complex in Malabar, investigators took into custody three males aged 46, 42 and thirty-nine.
They were also charged with possession of child abuse material and additional offenses.
The four individuals are due to return to court at a future time.
